I can't resume syncing after pausing indefinitely on Windows 11 (v240.4.8493).

Dropbox App Version (if using the app)

Question or Issue
I paused syncing syncing last week "indefinitely." Now, I want to resume. But there is no way to do so. The bottom text of the app window pop-up just says "Syncing paused." That text is not clickable. The drop down next to it only lets you select how long to pause for. There is no "Resume." Yes, I have restarted the app and my PC. This is insane.z

jsingleton BogdanDinu back with an update, the team is currently working on a fix for this and its scheduled to go out in our next update. Thanks so much for bringing this issue to our attention.
In the meantime, you can use the native menu (right click) to resume syncing
